PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
WATER JET CUTTING
In keeping with our vision, Craftco has top-of-the-line 5-axis CNC water jet cutting equipment to meet your production needs. If you are looking for a manufacturer for cutting high-quality, precise components, consider choosing Craftco for those needs.
A water jet is a cutting tool that uses ultra-high pressure water combined with an abrasive such as garnet to cut almost any type of material. Water jets can cut very intricate and precise parts, and 5-axis water jets can cut beveled and tapered edges. Water jet cutting is a cold process, while other cutting processes like laser and plasma are hot processes. Since the water jet cutting process is cold, it does not introduce thermal stresses into parts like plasma and laser cutting processes do
